HOW MANY BMW 323 I ARE LEFT?

There are 149 BMW 323 I left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 311 BMW 323 I that are currently SORNED.

The total number of BMW 323 I was highest during 1994 Q4 (7,789). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2021 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 7,329 (94%) BMW 323 I have been scrapped or exported.

During 2013 Q4 the number of BMW 323 I that were off the road (SORN) exceeded the number that were licensed for the first time. This could indicate the owners are reluctant to sell or scrap their car as they view them as a potential future classic.

In the last 10 years the total number of BMW 323 I has fallen by 25. Licensed models have fallen by 70 and the SORNed total has increased by 45.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 10 BMW 323 I models. Taxed models have grown by 22 and the SORNed total has fallen by 12.

68% of the remaining 460 BMW 323 I in the UK are currently off the road.
